Why Women Can't Diet Like Men

How many of you have gone through a process where you launch a diet alongside a man in your life? It might be a spouse, a sibling – even a group of coworkers. What often happens is the man sheds fat extremely fast – with much less effort, while you struggle to lose even 1-2 pounds a week, and hit more plateaus than you care to admit.

Why Women Can’t Diet Like Men: How many of you have gone through a process where you launch a diet alongside a man in your life? It might be a spouse, a sibling – even a group of coworkers. What often happens is the man sheds fat extremely fast – with much less effort, while you struggle to lose even 1-2 pounds a week, and hit more plateaus than you care to admit.

It’s frustrating.

The reason most women have trouble losing weight is because they’re trying to diet like a man.You’re not made like a man, so this doesn’t work. Weight loss isn’t a “one size fits all” approach. In fact, many women will find they have different weight loss struggles than their friends do.

Grasping at Straws:What usually happens is that desperation kicks in. You’re so frustrated by your lack of success and the stagnant state you’re in that you jump on any trend you can find out about, such as:

Eating nothing but cabbage soup 24/7

Gorging yourself on nothing but meat

Giving up everything in one food group

Not eating at all, but living off of water only as long as possible

It’s all unsafe and will cause your body to fight back with an even bigger storage of fat (for survival,find out why) the minute you start eating normal foods again – because living on one of the extreme weight loss plans above isn’t a long-term option.

When you’re out of options, and nothing’s working - what happens?

Depression kicks in.

John Barban of The Venus Factor talks about this in his video where he shares the touching story about his sister Lisa. He was able to take his own flabby body and morph it into something amazing, but his sister didn’t have the same results.

With himself and his guy friends, the solid advice that’s been around forever worked. He just had to apply it. But women are different – and no one was solving that one single issue – that one discrepancy shattered the one diet fits all mindset forever.
